[Bug target/17778] regression in evaluating long double hexadecimal constants


------- Additional Comments From rth at gcc dot gnu dot org  2004-11-12 02:54 -------
The bug is real, and it's not any of those proposed.  The Real Problem is that
the floating point format that is actually installed is NOT the 53-bit format
that FreeBSD wants to use.

I guess Zack's conversion to cpu-modes.def files was not 100% correct.  In any
case, the SUBTARGET_OVERRIDE_OPTIONS definition in freebsd.h is not effective.
It probably happens too early.

Seems like a cleaner solution here would be a TARGET_53_IN_96_LONG_DOUBLE macro
to be used in the existing ADJUST_FLOAT_FORMAT directive that we already have.
